After Deleting cufon font files, Blog Completely shut down! Help!!!!

can i use the wp db back up and restore. seems like a sureshot. am i wrong?

the site looks fine to me… a picture of a shark on the home page…

everything is wrong under the hood.

Let me try to setup an account… well since you do not allow user registration, and would like me to look at it, you can email login details to me if you would like

Second thought… don’t bother your site is a porno site… your own ISP has probably begun action to ban your site… Also, I do not believe you are allowed to post links to porno sites within this forum…

i am not a porno site…what are you talking about your’re joking right?

this has got to be a joke! AHH..i was just about to take it back 9am yesterday morning. but i don’t do that anymore. thanks for your input mrgone. greatly appreciated.

so i hope you guys are still around…here’s an update.

i haven’t taken the blog down yet. i did manage to get a backup of the data base with wpdb manager. then i started feeling lucky and actually installed wp 3.1.2 on my computer. i copied the content from my old install over the content of the new install. right now i’m importing the xml from the old blog.

wht i’d like to know is am i going about this the right way. i figure if i can get a copy of the site running at home then there’s hope. i cant believe this crap is happening the weekend of my bday. stuff like this only happens to me… thanks in advance for any further help.

stick with it, if you can copy it over to a local install and get everything right on there then the next thing to do would be to uninstall wp on your hosting and the reinstall a fresh 3.1.2 and then export your site to the new install.

also, check all plugins for compatibility with 3.1.2 and when you install the plugins turn them on one at a time and see if the problem returns. you’re on the right track!

ok is there a step by step guide to deleting the database and reinstalling. i’m on dreamhost. am i deleting the mysql database?

ok..created new database, attempted install and says wordpress is already installed.

Are you pointing to the new DB? That error usually means you’re pointing to the old one with all the tables. You should be pointing to a blank one.

not really sure how to do that. dreamhost wasnt any help. but here’s an update. when i couldnt install to the new database i restored the old one. i started toying around and switched to the twenty10 theme…and lo and behold i havent had a 404 yet. i totally think it was my theme screwing eveything up. is that possible?

the only thing now tho is my dashboard is gone. even in the screen options. any thoughts?

Yeah, the theme is possible.

What do you mean your dashboard is ‘gone’?

deleted a few plugins and it came back. so did the 404’s aaagghhhhh!
